‘Awli-yaaa-‘Allaahi– (the Friends of Allah), ‘Awli-yaa-‘a is plural of waliy-yun. Origin of waliy-yun is w-l-ii, from which the word walaa-yat
has come out. Walaa-yatun means
nearness, propinquity. So walii of
someone is the person who is close to him. Waliy-yUllaah
is the individual who maintains his first relationship with Allah Almighty and have
concern with other things exactly as much only; how much He has permitted. From
which connection He has prevented, one should never go near it; whether he
desires it so much. This inclination can be gained with Belief and keeping one’s
duty to Allah (Taqwaa) only.

It is commanded that the people who chose Allah Almighty
as their Companion, Supporter, Best and Protecting Friend, they have been
escaped from every kind of fear and terror. The way of getting friendship of
Allah Almighty is:

·Believe in Him.

·Have faith that there is neither any worthy of worship save Allah, nor
can be any other Lord but God Almighty.

·(Follow the Sayings of Allah’s last Messenger; Muhammad (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him) and believe in the entire Prophets and
Messengers (peace be upon them) that they were sent by Allah Almighty from time
to time for guidance of the human beings.)

With such Belief and practice you can be an Abstinent.
That is to say, the mankind should try every time that “I should never go near
the matter; from which Allah Almighty has prevented”.

Then Allah Almighty commanded: Those people, who
will follow these instructions, will live contented in this world, as well as
they will abide in the Hereafter also with ease and comfort. It is the Promise
of Allah Almighty. There is no changing in the Commandment; which He has
passed. Certainly, that shall be.
